We are committed to nurturing faith and celebrating the way in which God works through children, you, and families in our church.

We believe that making the church a priority will better prepare your child for the challenges of college and adult life.

For over thirty years, The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod (LCMS) has demonstrated its care and affirmation of young people by providing LCMS Youth Gatherings.

The LCMS Youth Gathering provides youth and adults the opportunity to come together as a community of God’s people to:

Be affirmed in their lives as God's people

Nurture their relationship with others in the church

Celebrate their salvation in Jesus Christ through Word and Sacrament

Recognize that youth ministry happens in a variety of settings in their parish, community and world

Held every three years, LCMS Youth Gatherings provide young people an opportunity to learn more about Jesus Christ, the Christian faith and their Lutheran identity. During the five-days of the Gathering youth spend time together in worship, God’s Word, prayer, song and service. This event is organized by LCMS Youth Ministry in Saint Louis, Missouri.

The next event is July 16-20, 2016, in New Orleans, Louisiana. Please keep the Gathering in your prayers as planners begin preparing for New Orleans in January 2014.
